How to Create a Weather App: A Step-by-Step Guide

Project:- 4/500 Weather App Project LiveRun

Description

This is a simple weather app that allows users to get current weather information for any location. The app uses an external weather API to fetch real-time weather data and displays it in a user-friendly interface. This project is ideal for learning how to work with APIs and building interactive web applications using JavaScript, HTML, and CSS.

Features

• Real-time Weather Data: Fetch and display current weather information for any location.

• Search Functionality: Allow users to search for weather information by city name.

• Responsive Design: Ensure the app works well on various devices, including mobile phones and tablets.

Technologies Used

• JavaScript: For fetching data from the weather API and updating the DOM.

• HTML: For structuring the app's interface.

• CSS: For styling the app and making it responsive.
